Subject: From Mrs Williams Mulg
*Hi Dear Friend,
.
Permit me to inform you of my desire to do business with you with my money
in your country.I am a 35 year old woman from Sierra Loene in west Africa.I
elate to inform you that I inherited a total sum of $5 million Us dollars
(Five million dollars) and 55kgs of gold dust from my late husband chief
Williams, a gold and diamond dealer who was murdered early last year by the
former TOGO president over the dispute in their diamond and gold deal.
This money which is concealled in a computerised suitcase is deposited in a
safe deposit company here in Cotonou, Republic of Benin where I am presently
taking refuge with my two kids as family treasure not money for security
reason. That is to say that the deposit company does not know that the
suitcase contain money.This was done under a high powered government
conection.
your assistance is now sought in the transfer of this money to your country
for investment into any lucrative business of your choice.By this mail, you
are requested to visit me here for familiarisation and to enable us arrange
on how to get this suitcase out from the deposit company and transfer this
money into your account in your country after which I will go back with you.
But if you can not come down here, the director of the deposit company can
arrange and bring it to you in your country under their diplomatic coverage
system just the same way it was brought from my country to this place. You
will be required to send me your pic to enable me know the person that I am
dealing with.I will send mine soon after repairing my scan machine which is
now faulty.
You will also be required to send to my lawyer, a copy of your international
passport or company registration certificate if any to enable him prepare an
agreement for us. For rendering this service, you will be highly
compensated, a situation that will be discussed later. I want you to take
this transaction very serious because it will benefit you.I will later tell
you why I reposed this trust and confidence in you, a person I have not met
you before. we must act fast because it cost me $50 daily as demurage to the
deposit company keeping this suitcase and the earlier we remove it from
there the better for us.Please get back to me as soon as possible stating
your wish in this offer.
via my private email. **mrswilliamsmulg@live.fr* <mrswilliamsmulg@live.fr>*
God bless. Sincerely yours
Mrs Williams Mulg
